</div>Actually not a bad deal - price / GB is nearly linear....<br>

Gotta love it. I ordered 3 of the 1TB drives - not realizing they had 1.5<br>
TB drives. The case I have will take 20 SATA drives - maybe the next<br>
batch will be 1.5 TB and I'll move the 1TB drives to my 6 drive RAID-6<br>
array and replace the 400 GB drives there....<br>
<br>
Gotta love it. I have more storage than a large data center did a few<br>
years ago....<br>

</div></blockquote><div> </div></div>Those prices seem high. I was looking on <a href="http://geeks.com">geeks.com</a> and Pricewatch and prices seemed quite a bit cheaper, I seem to remember 750GB for around 80 bucks. These may have lesser warranties but if you're doing RAID 6 it might be worth the gamble.<br>
